Actually what I wanted to do with the content almost amounts to metrics: I want to run through the text and check each word against some REs, taking different actions for the words that satisfy the REs (mostly counting words). I was thinking about using an Antlr parser/lexer to do this, once I have the text. I searched on FreshMeat yesterday and didn't find anything that looked like it was geared for what I'm looking for. It may be that most of the things that exist are not really designed to be interrupted where I need to interrupt them.
Of course when I said a package, I meant an open source Java API. :) I'm cheap.
